Key Review Excerpts

The rehab has been more intense which my family member needed.

Rehab patient's family · 2023★★★★★

The salon was very clean and all the products were in place. All the residents I could see looked very well kept and happy!

Visiting hairstylist · 2022★★★★★

My problem with this facility is the quality of the food that is served. Kitchen has been told all she needs to eat is protein no starches, just meat and vegetables. They keep serving her pasta, potatoes, breads, stuff she's not supposed to eat.
